U -- CREW RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (CRM) TRAINING COURSEWARE DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING DUE 111698 POC Points of Contact -- Capt Bob Beckett, Contract Specialist, 757-764-4247; Della Shelton, Contracting Officer, 757-764-4247 WEB: ACC CONS Business Opportunities, http://public.acclog.af.mil/cons/welcome.htm. E-MAIL: ACC Contracting Squadron, robert.beckett@langley.af.mil. ACC Contracting Squadron is begining the process of recompeting the Air Combat Command (ACC) Crew Resource Management (CRM) Training contract. CRM Training is designed to improve aircrew performance and situational awareness through better task management, mission preparation, and interaction between crew-members of aircraft, flights and formations. To accomplish this service, the contractor will be responsible for providing all CRM Training courseware development and training for all types of USAF Mission Design Series (MDS) aircraft at all levels of proficiency. This requirement is a direct follow-on effort to the services currently provided under contract, F44650-95-C0002. This contract, however, will extend services to the Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) and United States Air Forces Europe (USAFE), and, potentially, other Air Force major commands (MAJCOMs). This action will be issued as Request for Proposal (RFP) on or about 1 Oct 98, with an anticipated award date of 15 May 99. The government will require industry involvement in the development of the processes and procedures that will govern this acquisition. Various draft RFP documents will be posted on the ACC CONS Home Page (linked hereto) starting on or about 6 Apr 98. Interested parties should review these documents carefully and provide any comments via return email to this office (email capability provided on the internet). The Air Force will consider and respond to all industry input received, both positive and negative. Industry involvement will culminate with an Industry Day Forum to be held at Langley AFB VA where the government will present its plan for conducting this acquisition based on all comments received and offer industry a final opportunity to present comments. It is imperative that industry participate actively and fully in this "draft RFP" process -- no formal draft RFP will be issued. In this manner, the Air Force hopes to maximize the benefits of the acquisition process for both industry and government. The government plans to use the internet and email as the primary means of disseminating and exchanging information. All interested parties are encouraged to limit correspondence to these media. The point of contact for this acquisition is at ACC Contracting Squadron/LGCU, Attn: Capt Bob Beckett, 227 Hunting Ave Suite 301, Langley AFB, VA 23665-2771.
